This Poll for all members at www.ussvi.org asks the question about the role of Associate women members in your USSVI base chapter. Our USSVI Constitution permits a base option to allow any associate member to serve as a Base Secretary or Treasurer, and there is an implied right of any base to decide whether to have associate members or not. A few bases have asserted they have a 'right' to ban women associate members from participation (men associate members are ok) in their meetings, saying that USSVI is a men's organization and they don't want women involved, except through SubVettes or at their social functions. Please express your opinion by answering the two question poll at www.ussvi.org. This poll closes Sept 1st, so grab that round tuit and git'r done! |

I just went there and tried to vote in the current poll.... logged in, voted, got the message that I'd already voted on 9/2/08 (today). I could be wrong, but I THINK the number of members that had voted increased by one when I got that message.
Either way the system needs a little tweaking.
